Microsoft has announced a new show format called Xbox Partner Preview that will take place this Wednesday, October 25 at 10:00 am PT / 1:00 pm ET / 6:00 pm UK on YouTube and Twitch.

The showcase will feature over 20 minutes of trailers and new gameplay footage from indie games and third-party partners like Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio, Remedy Entertainment, Studio Wildcard, and more. There will be updates and new looks at games coming to Xbox and PC, as well as some new information on some upcoming Game Pass titles.

Confirmed updates includes in-game activities for Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, the launch trailer for Alan Wake 2, the first gameplay for Ark: Survival Ascended, and a dive into Dungeons of Hinterberg.

There won't be anything on the recent acquisition of Activision Blizzard King.

Read a Q&A on the Xbox Partner Preview below:

What time does Xbox Partner Preview begin? Wednesday, October 25, at 10am Pacific time / 1pm Eastern time / 6pm UK time.

How do I watch? Xbox Partner Preview will be available to be seen through a variety of outlets, and in over 30 languages, and American Sign Language, British Sign Language, and English Audio Descriptions here:

Please note the YouTube streams will be in 4K at 60fps, while all other channels will be 1080p / 60fps.

Is the event available in languages other than English?  We will be providing subtitle support in the following languages: Albanian, Arabic, Bosnian, Bulgarian, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, Finnish, French, Canadian French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Latvian, Lithuanian, Macedonian, Malay, Maltese, Moldovan, Montenegrin, Norwegian, Persian (Farsi), Polish, Portuguese, Brazilian Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Castilian Spanish, Latin American Spanish, Swedish, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, Vietnamese. While we expect to have all languages available with the show’s live broadcast, it is possible that select languages may need to be added in the days following the broadcast if they have not finished translating.

Aside from going directly to a regional Xbox channel, you can find support for all languages, as well as American Sign Language (ASL) and Audio Descriptions (AD), at YouTube.com/Xbox. ASL and AD video will be listed separately, but just click the gear icon in the lower righthand corner of our primary stream to choose the language of your choice. Oftentimes YouTube will default to a random language when you join the stream so you may also want to switch over to English if needed.

Is the show going to be Accessible to those with low/no hearing or low/no vision? There will be a version of the show with Audio Descriptions (AD) in English on the Xbox YouTube channel, and American Sign Language (ASL) on Xbox’s YouTube channel and the /XboxASL Twitch channel.

I’m not going to be able to watch, where can I find out what was announced? As announcements roll out during the broadcast, the Xbox Wire team will be publishing detailed blog posts containing key announcements right here on Xbox Wire (including localized versions in Brazilian Portuguese, French, German, LATAM Spanish, and Japanese). A full show recap will go live immediately following the end of Xbox Partner Preview.

"The showcase will feature over 20 minutes of trailers and new gameplay footage from indie games and third-party..." also confirmed to have no host or anything.
This is what I like to see! No extra fluff. Just gameplay and trailers.

Xbox PR been mostly on fire lately…which is quite shocking because for the longest time they’ve been inadequate-incompetent.

1st we got the good welcome to Activision blizzard trailer, then the globe in Las Vegas, an above average general Xbox advert with that girl…., and now a 3rd party promotion program….but let’s see if they can keep it up.

PS ,Their “E3” was pretty bad this year.
